Wood’s Mill Malt is a newly established malting facility in Nelson Co VA. Our future plans include an on premises farm brewery using all on site ingredients. With the expansion to a brewery, we find it necessary to seek out a partnership with the right individual(s) who has the ability, drive and passion to assist in the design, development, operation and marketing our unique endeavor. This will include not only a brewery but a tasting room that will include enough space to accommodate group functions, and a space where we can sell our beer by the glass, growler, and keg. We are currently able to manage all the existing demands of malting, however the next phase will need to implemented by the right person.
We have the unique distinction of growing our own barley and wheat on our 300 acre working family farm. We are malting and distributing our malt to local home brewers and local craft breweries alike. We have the capacity to produce 6000 pounds per week of kilned base malts. We also have a large commercial roaster that we use to produce our own crystal, chocolate and other specialty malts.
As well as our barley, wheat, and pure spring water, we will soon be growing our own hops as well. The hops yard is scheduled for spring 2015. Our “from the dirt to the glass” approach includes utilizing all aspects of the farm. With the completion of phase 2, ours will be one of the only farm breweries growing, malting, brewing and serving an all “on premises” beer experience,
The farm currently features several ponds and lakes, river frontage, two cabins for vacation rentals, and an FAA approved airport with grass runways. All of these aspects of the farm are available to assist in the expansion to a farm brewery. With the growing demand of locally produced products, our unique ability to control and tweak the grain production throughout the growing season, malting phase, and all the way to the final product makes ours a truly unique opportunity.
